I agree with the people here who say our front 7 can be nasty. I agree. But I'll say this. Against the Saints, with them playing the 49ers last year, the 49ers back 4 of Rogers (yes he's good), Tarrell Bown, Whitner, and Dashon Goldson (very very good and underrated FS) Brees still was able to put up 34 points on the best defense in the NFL. So thats why I say we may have a good front 7, but that secondary of ours is hurtful to look at (particularly safety). Thats why I still say the Saints win. And with the whole bounty thing they are going to be throwing out a lot of their anger on us the first game for sure. Oh and they are always fired up first game of the season in that dome. 31-17 Saints

Having been the doormats of the NFC East for the last couple of years, coming in with a new savior (RGIII), improved WR core, yes improved OL (Depth, Williams and 'Steiger are back), better D, secondary is about the same as last year, perhaps slightly improved. The skins will be very fired up and ready to prove people wrong and make them believers. Skins will give the Saints everything they got and will win.

Art Monk- Art was like an OL playing WR, doing the dirty work and not getting the glory.

RGIII's first real NFL play will be an 80 yard touchdown. Not a passing touchdown or even a rushing touchdown, but a receiving touchdown on a wildcat play with Banks as qb. There will be 4 wideouts. RGIII will be split out at tailback with Banks at shotgun. RGIII will be wide open on the left sideline with a linebacker trailing 10 yards behind him.

His first play from scrimmage will inspire a 38-3 blowout of the Saints. A mystery coach wearing an Aints paper brown bag over his head at the end of the game from the Saints sideline will shake Shanahan's hand. This will lead to another Saints investigation because there is speculation that the coach is really Sean Payton.

No way Brees doesn't get sacked. No way the Alfred Morris doesn't rush for 100 + yards against that Saints run defense. No way RG3 doesn't throw at least one TD pass. No way does Pierre Garcon not come away with over 100 yards in receptions. No way Washington Redskins don't win this game.

AND, we win 24-20. I think we can actually put up points on them and truly if we score a TD on our first drive, and can just get even a LITTLE defensive success to where the Saints have to play from behind, I think we can take them.

__________________Regret nothing. At one time it was exactly what you wanted.

I think the Skins will make some big plays and do some things that haven't been on film. Saints will struggle on D and take a couple games to adjust to the new playcaller on O. Should be a shoot-out, we'll pull it out thanks to RG3/Moss/front 7 on D.
